On the 220th day of "Al-Aqsa Flood Operation", settlers set fire to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian Refugees (UNRWA) in the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood in Jerusalem. The raids on Al-Aqsa and calls to raise flags inside it continued for tomorrow, Tuesday, and the summons and raids continued in Jerusalem.
The Wadi Hilweh Information Center - Jerusalem learned that the settlers threw flammable materials towards the UNRWA headquarters, which led to a fire in part of the square. They also threw stones at the employees and directed insults and obscene words.
The center pointed out that last Thursday, settlers threw flammable materials towards the UNRWA headquarters, which led to a fire in part of the backyard, and was preceded by setting fire to an air conditioner hose installed on the window of the guard room “at the agency’s door,” in addition to the weekly demonstrations in front of the headquarters and an attempt to attack employees and obstructing their access to the agency’s headquarters.
